Myocardial injury at 1, 3, and 6 hours following return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) in the CPR and CPR + Trimetazidine (TMZ) groups compared with the Sham group: (a) cardiac troponin I (CTNI); (b) mean aortic pressure (MAP); (c) left ventricular ejection fraction (EF); (d) representative echocardiograms in three groups at 6 hours following ROSC; (e) pathological examination of myocardial tissue in three groups at 6 hours following ROSC. Magnification ×200. β, versus Sham group; #, $ versus CPR group.
